I would prefer "0 minutes" or "0 hours" instead of "less than...

I''ve found an issue when trying to use the time_ago_in_words and distance_of_time_in_words from action view''s date_helper.rb Using SQL Server, I have a datetime column that gets returned as: "2007/02/21 09:54:00". When I pass this to time_ago_in_words (which just passes on to distance_of_time_in_words) it miscalculates the difference as &...

Hi: you know the way the google and this forum presents dates? How it''s measure from the current date/time and presents nicely as "39 minutes ago", 2 days ago, etc.? Has anyone done a gem or other library object that I can get to do those types of dates? Thanks so much in advance! Mike -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Is there a plugin or built in function for converting a date interval into the English equivalent?

When printing out the results of my "updated_at" field, I''d like to be able to print it as "Updated 5 days ago" instead of "Updated on 7/14/06." I''ve seen many blogs do this, is there an easy way to do it through rails / ruby? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

This is my first RoR project so go easy. It''s a simple directory with contacts. I have two datetime columns in my database (created_at and updated_at). In the list view (changed very little from default generated by scaffold) I want them to display as time_ago_in_words or :long or :short (not sure yet). The default just takes up too much space. In the show view this is fine and even preferred. I can''t figure out how to change this before I render the list view. Presumably this would be done in my directory controller, but I''m not sure and e...

Hi Railer, I''m developing a multilingual website by rails. I choose ri18n to customize i18n messages. However, for messages which are generated from build-in methods, such as ActiveRecord validation error message, time_ago_in_words() ... Any suggestion how to make these build-in message multilingual?
